Pawel Bienkiewicz was born in Poland in 1962 and creates abstract works. These include analog paintings - painted on paper or canvas, and digital works. He is fascinated by all issues that define our existence in the universe, both material and mental. His works feature motifs of space, inter-dimensional transitions, undulations, vibrations, transformation of energy and matter, contrast of light and shadow, tonal play of colors, and symbols.
In his paintings he tries to capture the beauty of the momentary states of matter and its changes. It's a kind of photography of what can escape our attention and will not happen again or last, still invisible but inherently real and real. In his analog works, he imitates nature, deforms the canvas before painting, paints a momentary deformation and then returns to the form of a plane, creating a picture ready to be framed.
In digital works, he consistently develops his own technique, which he calls HYBRID PAINTING. In this technique, an image painted on canvas is often created first. It serves as a matrix for the further creative process, based on photo collage and digital painting. The result is a digital work that is not a literal photograph of the matrix but a digitally modified alternative. In this way, the author wants to create a reference to the possibility of every aspect of our reality functioning in other, parallel universes. The works thus created are ready for publication as a file or print in archival quality in limited editions. The matrices used become individual works of art or are subject to further modifications.
His masters are: H.R. Giger, Victor Vasarely, Zdzislaw Beksinski. Pawel Bienkiewicz uses the pseudonym "pablo" in his works, dressed in an elliptical logotype.
The message: let's abandon limitations and start a journey into the unknown together.
